Highly Hygroscopic Aerosols Facilitate Summer and Early‐Autumn Cloud Formation at Extremely Low Concentrations Over the Central Arctic Ocean

Arctic clouds are sensitive to atmospheric particles since these are sometimes in such low concentrations that clouds cannot always form under supersaturated water vapor conditions. This is especially true in the late summer, when aerosol concentrations ar ...

Implementation of the ISORROPIA-lite aerosol thermodynamics model into the EMAC chemistry climate model (based on MESSy v2.55): implications for aerosol composition and acidity

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

This study explores the differences in performance and results by various versions of the ISORROPIA thermodynamic module implemented within the ECHAM/MESSy Atmospheric Chemistry (EMAC) model. Three different versions of the module were used, ISORROPIA II v ...

Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN) concentrations measured in the Swiss container during MOSAiC 2019/2020

Julia Schmale, Benjamin Jérémy Laurent Heutte, Nora Bergner, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada

This dataset contains CCN concentrations at five supersaturation levels, averaged to 1 min time resolution, measured during the year-long Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition from October 2019 to Septem ...

Electron diffraction of deeply supercooled water in no man’s land

Marcel Drabbels, Ulrich Lorenz, Constantin Richard Krüger, Gabriele Bongiovanni, Nathan Junior Mowry

A generally accepted understanding of the anomalous properties of water will only emerge if it becomes possible to systematically characterize water in the deeply supercooled regime, from where the anomalies appear to emanate. This has largely remained elu ...

Solidification of Metallic Alloys: Does the Structure of the Liquid Matter?

Michel Rappaz, Güven Kurtuldu

In 1952, Frank (Proc R Soc Lond Ser-Math Phys Sci 215:43-46, 1952) already postulated that Icosahedral Short Range Order (ISRO) of atoms in the liquid could possibly explain the large nucleation undercoolings measured in metallic alloys by Turnbull and Fis ...

Density effects on solute release from the streambed

David Andrew Barry

Contaminants can be released to the stream from the bed by previous pollution events. The releasing contaminants may cause secondary pollution for a river, which impacts the river’s eco-environmental condition. By means of laboratory experiments and numeri ...

In Situ Liquid SAXS Studies on the Early Stage of Calcium Carbonate Formation

Andrea Testino, Mohammad Reza Andalibi, Agnese Carino

Calcium carbonate is a model system to investigate the mechanism of solid formation by precipitation from solutions, and it is often considered in the debated classical and nonclassical nucleation mechanism. Despite the great scientific relevance of calciu ...

Entropy as a tool for crystal discovery

Pablo Miguel Piaggi

The computational prediction of crystal structures has emerged as an useful alternative to expensive and often cumbersome experiments. We propose an approach to the prediction of crystal structures and polymorphism based on reproducing the crystallization ...

Chemical shrinkage of ye'elimite with and without gypsum addition

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

Ye'elimite (Ca4Al6O12SO4 or C(4)A(3)S) is the main hydraulic mineral present in calcium sulphoaluminate cement (CSA). Its reaction is responsible for the (early) hydration and associated cement properties such as the chemical shrinkage. This paper discusse ...

An experimental study on flow boiling pressure drop in multi-microchannel evaporators with different refrigerants

John Richard Thome, Houxue Huang

A key parameter in designing two-phase flow systems for the cooling of high heat flux electronics is the pressure drop in microchannel evaporators. As a result, an experimental study was performed to investigate the flow boiling pressure drop of refrigeran ...
